Tubeless Insulin Pump Combined with a Cloud-Based Data Management Platform: Real-World Evidence from 14,765 French People with Diabetes
摘要
This study aimed to examine glucose metrics and insulin delivery patterns in children, adolescents, and adults with type 1 (T1D) or 2 (T2D) diabetes in France using the tubeless Omnipod DASH® pump with and a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor connected to myDiabby Healthcare® Data Management Platform (DMP).
MethodsTime-stamped CGM and insulin data were extracted from the DMP on December 6, 2023 for 17,344 users whose first data point from the tubeless pump occurred after January 1, 2020. The study population included users with sufficient pump and CGM data (≥ 90 days of use) and ≥ 15.5% of CGM use days reaching > 70% coverage. Analyses were performed by type of diabetes and age group.
ResultsAmong 14,757 users included in this analysis, most reported having T1D (93.7%), the median age was 33 years (Q1–Q3, 16–51), and the median duration of pump use was 545 days for people with T1D and 505 days for people with T2D (1.49 and 1.38 years, respectively). People with T1D spent a median of 52.5% (Q1–Q3, 43.4–62.5) of time in range (70–180 mg/dL, TIR) and a TIR ≥ 70% was attained by 12.6% of users. The median time below range (TBR, < 70 mg/dL) was 3.7% (Q1–Q3, 2.1–6.1). For users with T2D, median TIR was 66.9% (Q1–Q3, 54.0–77.8), with 42.8% of users achieving a TIR ≥ 70%. Over 90% of all users consumed less than 60 UI/day.
ConclusionThis robust and scalable analysis of a database of substantial quantity, density, and quality found that tubeless pump users achieved moderate glycemic outcomes overall with favorablesafety outcomes in particular, and used the pump consistently. Such databases could be useful for research and patient care, and further work will show how best to use them.
